Revert the context menu in Windows 11

Revert the context menu in Windows 11
Win 11 vs Win 10 context menu.

The Windows 11 context menu is a pain. Most of the actions I use daily require me to click the "more actions" item which just brings up the Windows 10 context menu. This extra click might sound trivial but I find it a real annoyance - also the fact that the other context menu is skewed in it's positioning.

Luckily I found out through some Googling that there is a way to bring back the old context menu by editing the registry and so I rolled these batch scripts to toggle the Windows 10/11 context menus.

Here are the scripts.
